I also can't login to ecp to try and change RBAC permision, i have only used the administrator account to perform the install but did gets errors along the way so i am thinking about an uninstall and wipe the server and start over, nothing is on the server
yet, it's a mixed 2003 / 2010 once this server is functioning.

Have seen the post about not being able to get into the console but i am not having that issue.

This morning i came in a did and ExBPA and it led the horse to water, David you where right it was an inheritance issue,

Access control list (ACL) inheritance is blocked for the Exchange Organization object (CN=TOWN OF FT MYERS BEACH ADMINISTRATION,CN=Microsoft Exchange,CN=Services,CN=Configuration,DC=fortmyersbeachfl,DC=gov). This may cause mail flow problems, store mounting
issues, and other service outages. Use ADSIEdit to re-enable inheritance on this object.

Yes, I did both /ps and /preparead, I have to admint the install wasn't clean for the 2010, we had a failed install on the mailbox role, went through and cleaned up what i was told, all entrya in ad, and adsiedit, as well as metadata and register.

Here is a run down of how the reinstall went,

1. I did all pre install steps again including schema and prepread

2. Started Install from gui of CA and HUB only

3. Got permissions error on Language pack,

4. Went back and cleaned up registery entry that error was reffering to, permission of registery entry where wrong.

5. Ran install again for just CA, HUB and Management. - installed clean, no errors.

6. Attempted to open gui or shell with errors that i did not belong to proper management group

7. Ran you cleanup process for failed RBAC permission, i could now open the EMS and Shell with out issue and see resources

Here is an entry from the event log when i tried to move one of the stores.

The description for Event ID 6 from source MSExchange CmdletLogs cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer.

If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event.

Two things I see from these log files that may be at issue. I see that the Administrator account used is named just that, but is under the IT Accounts OU. Is this the original built-in administrator account (from users container) or is this a copy?

I see that you have both your database and log files on the same volume. While that will work for small installations of Exchange, larger deployments will suffer GREATLY if that remains. Do you have another volume to place your log files onto instead of
the E: drive ?

Thanks for the help, i am try to do excatly what you said move the db to another volume, this is when i get the error, i havent had an issue a test user i created move it around different stores, the error is very selective. the Admin account is the orginal
built not a rename or copy. I am also getting the same error when i try an apply the activation key to the server.

Okay, so in looking over the log files again... is "FMB-DC1.fortmyersbeachfl.gov" the exchange server?

Is this also a domain controller? How many users do you plan on having on this system?

The move-databasepath...can you clarify? I see you are specifying 'e:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V14\Mailbox\Mailbox Database 0296394825\Mailbox Database 0296394825.edb'...is this the new target?

If so, I have seen failures if the folders for the target do not exist. So if E: drive is empty, create the Program Files folder, and continue creating folders down to Mailbox, then try to run the move-databasepath cmdlet again. Additionally, if
the mailbox is in the middle of either replication or backup procedures, you will not be able to complete the move.

FMB-DC1 is a DC and we will probably have 35 to 40 users as for the folder it does exist and i was able to create a new database in this same directory except for the database folder of course, i can delete or move any databases also not sure if you say
but i also get the exact same error when I try and apply the Product Key.
